Question details
A ball moves along a 1D coordinate system with the following
motion parameters at time t = 0 s: x0 = 6.9 m and
v0 = 3.1 m/s. The ball has a constant acceleration of
1.7 m/s2 during the entire motion which occurs over a time of 3.5
s. Assume that an error in position of 8 % is
acceptable in this application over the entire
motion. How many rows N will be needed in the
table to model the entire motion to within the required error even
though you are leaving out the final term of 1/2 a (
Δt)2
) present in the exact position expression?
